Movie poster for my Work In progress fantasy romance Rosemary and Flame. The background images is a plus sized woman with dark brown curly hair in a pink dress sitting in a marble pedestal reading a book. Beside her a man with black hair tail and fox ears in a crimson coat leans over her his arm around her while he gazes lonely at her (a nod to Fragonard’s “love letters”). They are surrounded by lush greenery. The words on the poster have the title of the book in fantasy script, “a book by rachel patino”, “a heart cursed to be stolen” “a quest of magical proportions”, a quote from the book: “Because, you idiot, I love you.”, a beta reader quote with 5 stars “he’s so down bad.”, the bottom says “for fans of howls moving castle, nettle and bone and Emily wilde’s, with a “querying this fall” below that.

It's #CreatorDay on Itch.io, so I made my horror anthology free to claim again. Go get it! Maybe even toss in a coin if you like it--or let me know. I'm as fueled by validation as I am by income, if not more so.

Why yes, I *am* desperate.

So annoying when something on Depop is listed as “free size” with no measurments, and when you ask for them the seller says “don’t worry you can belt it!” OH CAN I?? Can me, a size 18/20 belt it? Or will it actually be too small because it’s not actually free size? Just give me the measurements!

Hey so that TikTok lady that called us all stupid is mean and probably hurting inside. She’s not saying these things because they’re true. Only miserable people act and think like that. I hope no one feels badly about themselves because of what she said. You are not stupid if you enjoy romantasy.

One of my favorite things to do is email authors while I’m reading their book to tell them how much I’m enjoying it in the most “unhinged comments of their MS” kind of way. It’s such joy, I recommend everyone do this. And I hope to one day receive similar emails.

Childhood friends to secret lovers to lonely workaholics an ocean apart.

She's regrouping. He's running away.

A twist of fate puts them back in each others’ arms, but someone else's greed threatens to tear them apart forever.

THE OFFICE x GOOD OMENS

Virgil Mora has three months to turn around a vampire-ran Ohio gas station to restore Heaven’s faith in Hell and save his boss, Lucifer, the angel he’s fallen for.

Before his past mistakes come back to haunt him. Literally.

A movie poster, at the top is the title “Hell Is Work” and underneath it a tag line “The Devil is in the details” The background is red with a light red graph showing a plummeting arrow representing a failing business. In the foreground is a three pronged Devil’s pitchfork with a halo around the central tine. Sitting on the curved crook of the right tine, nonchalant, with one arm wrapped around the tine is a black silhouette of a man wearing a suit and tie. His legs dangle casually above a field of flame. On the curved crook of the left tine, staring at the other man, is a white figure of a man with wings spread, casually playing footsie with the other man. At the bottom is the words “A novel by Zed Prospero”

Today’s #wipsnip is a little ‘ol thing I like to call “annoyance to lovers”

“That ring belongs to me, and you will hand it over.” A fang flashed in the moonlight. She huffed through her nostrils, bold and brazen. A very small voice inside her whispered that her attitude was going to get her killed. A voice she didn’t listen to. Lianna had never met a man she couldn’t sway. Slowly, emphasizing the words, her breath hitting his face with each syllable, “Take it then.” He flinched, ever so slightly, eyes flickering to the side. It was just a moment, a quick movement of indecision, but she caught it.

Everyone always talks about being with the hot 500 year old demon/fae/vampire but no one ever thinks about the day to day because imagine showing your ancient S.O. a meme and saying “this is you”.

(Still would)
Text conversation of person a sending a meme saying “this you” Person b “I did not take that picture” Person a “no but you always do this” Person b “I don’t know him in that picture” Person a “it’s a representation of you.” Person b “did you go there?” Person a “it’s from a movie” Person be “Call me. I don’t understand.”
